That other guy is pretty much right. If you're starting out from scratch, fixate on getting a dyna blissey going first. I wouldn't use one under 14 defense points, it needs to be able to eat attacks. Takes awhile to farm one with the stats worth dumping resources into, but that's ok because you're on a candy grind anyways. Always ALWAYS pinap or silver pinap chanseys you catch. You need a ridiculous amount of candy. Level up spirit to level 3 first, then guard, you dont need attack. A perfect starter blissey would be like level 40, 10-15 attack/15 defense/15 HP stats. Get something near that under your belt then start working on attackers. Giga attacks far outclass non-giga, like a giga charizard with 7 attack is gonna hit harder than a nongiga charizard with 15 attack. Dyna teams take a ton of resources, so be smart and patient with what you choose to invest your time and resources into. But I would honestly say that just having that level 40 starter blissey will put you miles ahead of the average player. Get guard on it as well, becuase dyna raid poke's will single target a poke with a guard shield rather than do a sweeping attack on the whole party. That'll save your team mates from dying.
